The majority of the Arthurian Men at Arms for my Lion Rampant army have been sitting in my lead mountain for the best part of two years and were the first part of the project that I bought. I have already mentioned that they were supposed to be Derfel's wolftails but I talked myself out of it and turned them into generic Romano-British Dark Ages warriors. The fact that most of them are wielding spears, while being an elite unit, is a hangover from reading the Winter King series.
I have picked a different shield design from the basic troops but copied the idea of mirroring the colours to show they are separate units but of the same rank, this plan will work as long as I never add a third unit of the same type.
Standing in glory in the middle of his unit is the army Warlord, this was one of the models I had never planned for as he was generously given to me by Neil at my club when he heard about the project, he really looks the part.
Thanks for reading
They look great, and I think you're right - the warlord certainly looks the business.
